Canada Letter: The return of a missing Churchill portrait

The theft of an iconic photo by Yousuf Karsh first went unnoticed. Now it has been found in Italy.

And all of the luminous black-and-white photos were works by Yousuf Karsh, who both lived in the hotel and kept his studio within it.

The portrait was stolen over two years ago from the lounge, but the Ottawa Police Service announced that it had been found in Italy and that an officer would soon travel to Rome to retrieve it.

But, as I wrote in the article about its recovery, the thief got around international watch lists of stolen artworks by successfully delaying the discovery, replacing the original with a low-quality inkjet print that was crudely hung. The delay of eight months or so between the theft in early 2022 and its uncovering enabled the sale of the portrait through a Sotheby’s auction in London. While using rooms in the hotel as a base during the trucker convoy that paralyzed Ottawa for much of February 2022, I learned that Mr. Karsh’s apartment had been turned into a suite used mostly by visiting dignitaries. His studio, however, had been chopped up into rooms. That spring, at roughly the midpoint between the Churchill photo’s theft and the crime’s discovery, the hotel allowed me to photograph a part of the suite on 8-by-10-inch film — Mr. Karsh’s format — using Kodak lenses from the 1940s and ’50s that were also Mr. Karsh’s preference.

It appeared on the cover of Life magazine and has been widely reproduced since it was taken in 1941. The image set Mr. Karsh on the path to becoming known worldwide as a photographer of the famous. So on my way out of the hotel, I decided to photograph it as well. The print looked very wrong to my eyes. It seemed to be an inkjet print, certainly not one of Mr. Karsh’s gold-toned photographic prints. The photo was flat and lacked the richly detailed blacks of his other prints, which were mainly hung in another part of the lounge. But I didn’t raise it with the hotel staff member escorting me, as I was already running late. And I thought that given the photo’s importance, the hotel might have substituted a copy for security reasons. Looking closely at the photo I took now, the thief’s decoy print showed other signs that something was amiss. No training in forensics is necessary to see that the signature is a crude forgery. And the photo was hanging on a cord hooked onto a crooked hanger, which is clearly visible above it.

But Jerry Fielder, the director of Mr. Karsh’s estate, told me that one aspect of the heist still puzzles him. Mr. Fielder, who started working for Mr. Karsh in 1979, supervised the hanging of the photos at the hotel. Mr. Karsh and his wife, Estrellita Karsh, made a permanent loan of the photos to the hotel that had long been their home, after they moved to Boston in 1997. Mr. Fielder said that all of the frames had been fitted with security locks. “You just can’t pick them off the wall,” he said.

But whatever their number or their value, the last prints of the “Roaring Lion,” as the portrait came to be known, were made before Mr. Karsh closed up his studio in 1992. He turned over his vast archive of negatives, including early ones on potentially explosive nitrate film, to Library and Archives Canada on the condition that no prints ever be made from them again.
